I am interested to see how many UK based AI owners are on this forum? Maybe we could have a get together sometime for a paddle, do our own version of the Broken Bay trip.

My AI lives at Hayling Island Sailing Club in Chichester Harbours entrance. If anyone fancies it, we could always do something from HISC, it has everything including accomodation on site and there is an interesting harbour to explore or nip across to the Isle of Wight or round the corner to Portsmouth?

It's a fabulous idea, I recommend it to all - Bembridge creek would be a perfect destination, and Bembridge sailing club was always a very friendly place when I used to visit. Portsmouth harbour is also good - but as a non-boat owner, I would have to satisfy myself by watching your little Armada pass by the Still and West public house at the harbour entrance , as I wetted myself on the inside with a pint or two of Gale's's excellent Horndean Ale.

Tony Banks lives nearby me. All of Genesis went to Charterhouse school in Godalming (about 5 miles from me). Mike Rutherford lives about 4 miles away and Phil Collins used to live about the same distance away. We can also include Gary Brooker of Procol Harum, Eric Clapton and a handful of film and TV celebrities in this area. They are obviously keen to live near me.

O, he means that Tony Banks - I was thinking of Tony Blair's Sports Minister, who died on holiday in Florida - I wonder if he decided to have go on a Hobie AI...
